Issue No. 16 (July 1954) of Master Weaver, a bulletin for handweavers published in Fulford, Quebec. It contains a business article on costing and selling handwoven goods, a note on the terms "harness" and "heddle-frame", and a scheme for weaving coded messages in overshot floats and picks, with a worked example and a "Merry Xmas" border. A teaching lesson explains how to find the basic treadling for a square pattern, and a final article covers turned swivel (colour in the warp) with drafts, treadling variations and loom requirements. A short editor's note reports the Encyclopedia of Handweaving is out of print.
